Using cargo's builtin bench tool with the unstable
testfeature (so requiresnightlytoolchain). It has been around for few years now so I don't think a big risk, and rather not introduce a dependency.I used the benches to run an experiment with the
fschacha20poly1305module. I thought performance could be improved by using a shared buffer in between calls (e.g.nonce()andrekey()) instead of having to zero-allocate arrays each time. But this actually resulted in a small performance decrease, I guess probably something to do with caching and optimizations around the small, stack-based buffers.
